On this episode of TTT, two students, Erika Auger (9th Grader from Wiscasset, Maine) and Kelsey Shelhart (8th Grader from Wheatfield, Indiana) join Paul Allison (NYC) and Monika Hardy (Loveland, Colorado) to tell stories that answer a couple of questions posed by our friends at One Day on Earth: What do you have? What do you need?

21:41karen (@kfasimpaur): I like being an adult because I can have whatever day I want to have each day.

21:42Kelsey Shelhart: I'm always pressured to have a good day. I want to have the day I have sometime.

21:43Peggy George: I know what you mean :-)

21:43Peggy George: I want to go with Erika!

21:43Kelsey Shelhart: I don't like how everyone assumes that I don't like school. I do, but nobody believes me.

21:43karen (@kfasimpaur): We can all make our days what we want....maybe not tomorrow, but at some point.

21:44Kelsey Shelhart: karen- I love that!

21:44karen (@kfasimpaur): A lot of adults have forgotten that, I think.

21:44Peggy George: I think so Karen

21:45karen (@kfasimpaur): (I grew up in a family where work was something "you had to do"...and no one enjoyed it. I'm glad I got to know people who thought otherwise at some point.)

21:45Peggy George: a whole month! woo hoo Kelsey!

21:45karen (@kfasimpaur): Kelsey, I taught overseas and it was the most *fabulous* experience ever.

21:45karen (@kfasimpaur): Lots of time to read too!

21:45Peggy George: reading the book wouldn't be enough for you Kelsey--you need to be able to cook the food too

21:46karen (@kfasimpaur): ...and write a book :)

21:46Peggy George: absolutely!

21:46Kelsey Shelhart: I'm already writing a book.

21:46karen (@kfasimpaur): excellent...fiction or nonfiction?

21:47karen (@kfasimpaur): Do you know about nanowrimo?

21:48Kelsey Shelhart: Karen- would you mind sharing your last name with me? Your quote about making our days what we want them to be was one of the best things I've heard in a while and want to credit you proerly.
